Butser Ancient Farm Event hits the National Headlines

Butser Ancient Farm made it into the Top Ten Best Christmas Attractions this winter in The Guardian newspaper. Tales of Winter Magic and Celebrating Saturnalia which take place this Friday 19 December were rated amongst the best in the country by the national newspaper.

This story has now been repeated by another well respected UK magazine, The Week. This publication puts Butser Ancient Farm alongside cities such as Edinburgh, Brighton and St Albans which are holding Christmas events. The renowned archaeological site, nestled in the hills close to Clanfield, is small in comparison but its reputation for excellence shines bright.

As we head towards the Winter Solstice there are magical events about to occur just over the hill at Butser Ancient Farm.Fires will be lit to drive away the shadows and a band of story tellers will recount tales of fairy, fable and legend.

Butser Ancient farm is an enchanting place at any time of the year but close to the shortest day it is very special site to visit. Close your eyes and be transported back to a time long, long ago when the local people of the South Downs celebrated the Winter Solstice and Saturnalia.
